Description: Miami Beach, FLORIDA - Americana Hotel - Bal Harbour: Following the war, on August 14, 1946, Bal Harbour Village was incorporated and development began in earnest. The Village was first called “Bay Harbour,” a name that was soon discarded as not properly defining a community with oceanfront property. A new word was created, taking letters from “bay” and “Atlantic” to create “Bal.” Thus Bal Harbour, a new town encompassing bay and ocean, was named. In December 1946, the first hotel, Kenilworth-by-the-Sea, opened for business. Described as “ultra-modern,” the 160-room ten-story Kenilworth promoted the concept of “luxurious leisure.” Over the next decade, a total of nine resorts would line the Village’s beachfront — the Sea View Hotel, the Bal Harbour, the Balmoral, the Ivanhoe, the Colony, the Singapore, the Beau Rivage and the Americana. The card reverse touts: "Americana, Oceanfront at 97th Street, Bal Harbour, Miami Beach. One of the world's most famous resort hotels … the magnificent Americana features the award-winning cuisine of the Gaucho Steak House, Dominion Coffee House, Bal Masque Supper Club and Carioca Lounge. An outdoor pool and all-weather enclosed pool are part of the delightful cabana and garden area."
